Abstract
Diabetes and chronic heart failure are interrelated conditions with major medical and economic impact that have to be treated as a distinct entity. Several pathological mechanisms have been investigated and proposed to explain the structural and functional changes associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy. These mechanisms are likely to act synergically and may potentiate one the other. This review outlines recent advances in the pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in the development and progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy and in current therapeutic strategies.
Keywords: Chronic heart failure, diabetes mellitus, diabetic cardiomyopathy, molecular mechanisms, structural alteration, therapy.

Association between Diabetes Mellitus and natural product complementary applications: State of the arts
Diabetes Mellitus (DM) represents a significant global health challenge, characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. The increasing prevalence of DM, alongside its associated complications, has prompted researchers and healthcare professionals to explore a variety of management strategies beyond conventional pharmacotherapy. Among these ...read more
Chronic inflammation and Disorders/Cancers
Chronic inflammation is fundamental cause of variety of disorders. Many lifestyle-related diseases including metabolic syndrome, obesity, impairment of immune responses, sepsis, mental illness, and other disorders are caused by chronic inflammation. Prevention of chronic inflammation is related to antiaging effects of our body. Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α is associated ...read more
